Autumn is a season like no other
There is something about autumn that is like no other time of the year. Days are shorter. Skies are darker but yet people seem warmer.
When you think of it, seasonal changes are somewhat magical. They put us in a different mindset. Colors and smells can alter our feelings and bring back favorite memories of the upcoming time of year.
Fall is my favorite time. It’s such a great season that it has two names. Autumn, what a nice, warm ring to it. Even more than winter, and where I live there is no real winter, fall is a time for family and togetherness. But why is it so?
Shorter, colder days mean we spend more time indoors. We’re closer to each other. Watching movies and sharing meals are a regular thing. Sunsets are painted with wonderful orange hues. But don’t miss it, they don’t last too long.
Leaves turn from green to a kaleidoscope of yellows and oranges. They come down from trees to mark your path. The plants are letting us know that a new season has arrived. If we pay close attention, the sounds of a light breeze, or the rustling of feathers are like whispers from father time.
